IFOW Launch Labour Market Resilience Report with Whiteshield Partners

On the 24th March 2021 IFOW launched the 'Labour Market Resilience Report' in partnership with Whiteshield Partners and Oxford Said Business School.

The last twelve months have brought with them a range of unexpected economic disruptions to the United Kingdom. As COVID-19 has spread through Europe the economy of the UK took a severe hit, shrinking by 19.5% in the month of April 2020. Our analysis suggests that labour market resilience will be a more reliable indicator of how the UK may respond to economic shocks in the future.
